About Empire Home Center

About Empire Home Center

Nestled in the heart of Leesport, PA, Empire Home Center is your one-stop destination for home improvement essentials—whether you’re hunting for premium building materials, bathroom supplies, hot tubs, or surplus fixtures. As a full-service home goods store and surplus outlet, Empire delivers everything from flooring and cabinets to countertops, décor accents, and outdoor spa solutions. Generations of homeowners, contractors, and DIY enthusiasts have turned to Empire for expert guidance, unbeatable prices, and the widest selection in the region.

A World of Choice and Value

Empire Home Center takes pride in offering a vast inventory you simply won’t find at typical big-box retailers. Step onto our showroom floor or browse online, and you’ll discover:

  • Hundreds of flooring options—tile, hardwood, vinyl, and laminate
  • Stylish bath vanities, sinks, faucets, and accessories
  • High-grade building supplies: lumber, drywall, trim, and more
  • Surplus and clearance items at rock-bottom prices
  • Luxury hot tubs, portable spas, and all related parts

Customers frequently remark, “Huge selections on everything from tiles to sofas,” and rave about “great selection on counters, doors, and flooring.” Beyond breadth, Empire’s pricing drives real savings. One happy shopper declared, “Their prices are much, much lower than the big stores,” while another celebrated “unbeatable prices” that let them tackle a full kitchen remodel on budget.

Expert Guidance: Knowledge You Can Trust

A hallmark of Empire Home Center is its team of seasoned professionals, each bringing deep product knowledge and design expertise to every project:

  • Anthony guides clients through overwhelming choices with honesty and patience. “Doing home renovations, I was very pleased with the honesty and patience from Anthony,” shares one grateful homeowner.
  • Cole’s sharp design eye instantly zeroes in on your style preferences. “Cole was very helpful and immediately directed us to the perfect cabinets,” notes a repeat customer.
  • Harold stands out for his professionalism, timely follow-up, and clear communication. “Harold was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and answered all of my questions promptly,” wrote a delighted client.

This trifecta of expertise ensures you get personalized attention, accurate product recommendations, and design solutions that fit your lifestyle and budget.

Deliveries, Installations, and Workmanship

Empire Home Center goes beyond retail, offering in-house delivery and installation crews tasked with turning your purchases into reality. Many customers praise the installation teams: “He and his crew did a fantastic job from start to end,” one review applauds. However, as with any growing operation, there are occasional hiccups—some clients have experienced delivery delays and missed deadlines that led to frustration and extra costs (“Ordered cabinets on December 30th and they never showed up until the middle of March”). A handful of customers also reported issues with workmanship (“issues after issues with employees, workmanship and process was difficult”).

Empire continuously refines its logistics and training programs to minimize these challenges, striving to match the same high standard you see in our showroom.

Quality You Can Rely On—Mostly

Customers’ experiences with product quality can vary depending on the line or surplus item. On one hand, Empire stocks top-tier name brands known for durability and style: “Empire had a great selection of quality name brand products,” one client notes. On the other hand, surplus or thermofoil-coated materials sometimes draw criticism for rapid wear (“The cabinets were thermofoil painted acrylic… very low quality”). To safeguard your investment, Empire Home Center encourages clients to explore warranties, ask staff for comparative insights, and lean on expert associates—like Anthony, Cole, or Harold—to pinpoint the optimal balance of price and performance.

Sales Events & Community Connections

One of Empire’s standout features is its calendar of festive sales nights, holiday parties, and member-exclusive promotions. “Their holiday parties and 25% off nights were fun, too,” beams a satisfied visitor. Sales reminders from staff—Luis J among them—ensure you never miss out on deep discounts or a limited-time offer. These events foster a strong sense of community, drawing neighbors together to share renovation stories, design tips, and a love for home transformation.
